You can use wheat wraps instead of rice . The wheat wraps are not see-through and you can fry them if you wish to. I use rice wraps as I have cut down wheat from my diet.

You really need to add some crunch in there. So fresh vegetables are must.

Best vegetables to use are: bean sprouts (you can boil them for two mins so they be softer in flavour), carrots, spring onions, courgettes, lettuce and very fresh green beans)

Although bell peppers are colourful and will make your wrap look better they are not typically used in Thai cooking. Thai people believe bell peppers don’t absorb spices well therefore they are not used in Thailand. ( So I was told!)

If you are not vegetarian , feel free to add boiled prawns, or any meat left overs from your roast.

You should add a herb inside wraps for aroma and flavour ( mint was our teacher’s choice).

The wraps are made with no seasoning and they are dipped in a sauce of your choice before eating.

In some cases a bit of vermicelli is added to each wrap ( but why not use it as a low carb meal of the week and leave the noodles out).
